The three-match Test series between India and New Zealand is set to start from Sept. 22 in Kanpur, but the Black Caps will feature in a three-day practice game against Mumbai in Delhi before Kane Williamson and co face Virat Kohli and his men at Green Park next week.

This game is going to be of utmost importance for New Zealand, as this is their only competitive practice match. But they might not be happy with the pitch that is in the offing for the match as the 22-yard strip is green, which will act as an obstacle in their preparations with the first Test track set to be a turner in Green Park.
